A Great Clothing Emporium.

Juftis & Davidson, clothters and
merchant tailors, No. 213 Market Stree
have started out bettmes to catch the
early fail trade by laying In o trtmen-
dous stock OF ell kinds OF mems, boys
and children's wear, and they very
wisely let the people know where they
are and what they have through the
columns OF the REPUBLICAN The store
is the largest in the CITY, extending lit
feet from Market to 6hioley street,, an
entile BLOCK. The building 10 three
stories In height, besides the basement.
we'll supplied with skyliehts, AID the
whole Is occupied by this eatcrrristnR
firm for their large and extensive trade.
The mems department commences
Immediately upon entering the front
door and extends half way back the
length OF the building. Some ten Ia.
pies fairly groan under the load Of
Clothing piled upon them.
Each table cou taips about 100 suits Of
Clothing, and 1t Ia Nh easy ejaculation
to see that the " hole foo,s M 1900 suits
These suits, which vary in price from
| Us to $50, give some idea Of the i'm uaenee
amount OF money invested In the cloth
ing trade by this one Arm. Tbee facts
relate to the mems department As to
tne quality OF the clothing, IL is Just
what might be expected for au enter
prisipg establishment like this, 1t
ranges from good to best and incl udes
all varieties, from p ain suit to a d.
agonnl and cOrktcrew Prince A bert.
30 much for the mems department.
The youths department commences
about the middle OF the long floor. and
takes up the ether half of the sp, ce,
Some eight tables are similarly covered
with goods Of best and latest designs
and patterns. Most fastidious mus, the
lad and his parents be who cannot suit
themselves to suit in this large and
varied assortment OF goods. Prices of
course vary from S5 to $18.
A children's department to the right
lacks nothing to make the father and
mother feel proud Of their boy when he
Jumps into his first euit. Easy stair.
Ways leao TO the oVercoat department in
second story.
AZ may we'll be supposed, all kinds
OF Overcosts are here found, from the
light tall knock around to the heavier
winter beavers. These range In price
from IS to $50. Halt of this story ie
stocked with custom goods, and the
third story contains the working and
stock rooms. With the facilities for
turning out an ordered suit these gen.
tlemen are we'll supplied, and their
workmen are the best that can be pro.
cured.
Last mentioned, but not least in i'm
portance, are the polite and accommo-
dating clerks employed by Messrs.
Justis & Davidson. Every wish or
desire OF q customer is anticipated and
politely supplied by Harry Pierce,
George MCCALL, Harry Blythe and John
b. Jones, who are always on hand to
walt on customers. There is no use
trying to down the prices asked for
clothing by these gentlemen. Each
piece has the price marked upon 1t, and
from 1t there is no deviation. This is
emphatically the zone Price Clothing
House," and deserves rs Ii will receive
large share Of custom. The proprie-
tors, Messrs. Jus,is & Davidson are
always around giving direction and
en- Encouragement to trade, and are to be
heartily congratulated for their enter
prise and success.

A MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCE.

a very mysterious circumstance
is said to have occurred near
Commlskey, Jennings county, Ind,
Sunday night, July -. About five
months ago the people OF that
neighborhoOd concluded to build a
Baptist church, as most of them
were Of that faith. A collection
was taken up and the lumber pro.
cured. For time the work pro.
crossed very smoothly, until it came
to the raising OF a large beam,
which was intended to uphold the
rafters of the structure. A derrick
large enough could not be secured,
and work was stopped. During
the summer nights the farmers
have frequently met to discuss
some means of raising the beam,
but nothing was ever done. On
last Monday morning, however, it
was discovered that the beam had
been placed IN position daring the
night by some unknown agency
Hundreds OF people, says the Louis
vile Commercial, gathered about
the place, and the miracle, if such
it may be termed, has created great
religious excitement in the neigh
borhood. There is not the slightest
sign that the work was done by
